AGC

For setting the AGC (automatic gain control) level.

 

 

Off

: Disables the AGC feature

 

 

Mid

: When the amount of light is insufficient

 

 

High

: When the amount of light is particularly insufficient

 

 

Super

: When the brightness level is insufficient even upon setting to

 

 

 

AHighB.

 

 

[Setting value:Off, Mid, High, Super]

 

 

Memo:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The screen appears grainy at dark locations when the AGC feature is in

 

 

use.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sense Up

This feature is used to raise the sensitivity level by lengthening the

 

 

exposure time.

 

 

You can specify the number of times by which the sensitivity level is to be

 

 

increased automatically when the object becomes dark. When Ax32B is

 

 

selected, the sensitivity is changed dynamically up to 32 times (as

 

 

compared to the AOffB mode) to fit to current darkness. When sensitivity

 

 

increases, the shutter speed becomes slower and hence, movement

 

 

becomes unnatural. When set to AOffB, Sense Up is disabled.

 

 

[Setting value:Off, x2, x4, x8, x16, x32, x64, x128]

 

Memo:

Upon raising the sensitivity level, the screen may appear grainy or white, or white defects may occur. However, this is not a malfunction.

When [Sense Up] is set to a value other than AOffB, flickers occur under the light of fluorescent or mercury lamps. This is not a malfunction of the camera, but is due to principles related to Sense Up.

When the [Shutter Speed] item L is set to A1/100B to A1/10000B, set [Sense Up] to AOffB.

L Shutter Speed This item sets the speed of the electronic shutter.

When [Sense Up] item K is set to Ax2B or above, available setting value is A1/60B or A1/100B only.

[Setting value:1/60,1/100,1/250,1/500,1/1000,1/2000,1/4000,1/10000]

Memo:

Flickering of fluorescent lightings can be reduced when the shutter speed is set to A1/100B or A1/60B respectively in regions of commercial power frequency 50 Hz and 60 Hz.

The faster the shutter speed is, a smear phenomenon specific to CCD, where white bands appear vertically along bright light source, is more emphasized.

The edges between high and low illumination area may appear rough.
